#BrightSpot - Changing Lives

Last summer, the story of a young man in Baltimore, Khalil Bridges, has been shared via the Washington Post, and other news outlets. Khalil Bridges attended a community school in Baltimore, where he found help and support that would uplift him as he moved forward into young adulthood. His story is one of overcoming obstacles and many people rallied to support Khalil in his future pursuits of education, prompting Khalil to ask what the next steps would be not for himself, but for other young people and his community as a whole. We want to share Khalil’s voice, through the coverage of his experience, as well as through his own words. Learn more.
